So, I got my Pottery Barn catalogue over the weekend. It was filled with things I want but cannot afford, until I got to this. Wait a minute, I thought, they are charging $6 for something I can make? That's outrageous...

So, I went to Hobby Lobby to get some styroform and off I work:


Don't look at them too close, they are still prototypes. The Blue one I thought they were using individual strips of ribbon, but I'd figured it's not true... so the Red one I use one continuous ribbon. The only problem is the ridges you get from the folds. But, I'll keep playing w/ them...

At some point, I'm thinking $6 is worth it.... hmmm....
